The image is not appropriate for use, in the article's current state, as the image does not depict anything that is not either A. depicted in another image, or B. explained through text. Additionally, the caption text has no more relevance to this image than any other image of her; less so, in fact, when you consider that the text deals with them in the context of video games. The comic itself is not notable either (at least not so much that it needs to be shown); as such, including it seems extraneous to me.
As for Mileena, I feel as though the image used right now is not as notable as a Playboy image; Sexy Mileena is an art done by Midway in their own game, while appearing in Playboy is a noteworthy magazine featuring her in a non-trivial way. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 09:44, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Mortal Kombat: Rebirth. Users are expected to
collaborate with others, to avoid editing
disruptively, and to
try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. 79.123.86.25 ( talk) 21:00, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
Hello. There has recently been a discussion noting concerns about the quality of the prose in some of the articles you have nominated for GA class. As you stated that you are not from an English-speaking country, I would like to recommend that you post a request at WP:GOCE/REQ for one of the volunteers at the Guild of Copy Editors to work on and improve the prose of your articles before they are reviewed by a GAN reviewer. I think this would go a long way in improving the quality of your submissions and increase the chances of a successful and expeditious GAN. Please consider my recommendation, and I wish you luck in your nominations. -- Odie5533 ( talk) 03:03, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
I noticed in Battletoads (video game) that you used the word "you" several times in the gameplay section. Per WP:YOU it is actually discouraged that you write articles in the second-person, it produces a non-encyclopedic game guide-like feel and it makes the assumption that the reader is going to be playing the game.

Your recent editing history at Command & Conquer (1995 video game) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Odie5533 ( talk) 23:40, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

I just did the review for the first, saw your post and will wait on the second one till you do your rewriting. Just ping me when ready, I'll come back to them each day to double check though. I know GAN is a nasty process of waiting and a random draw of which reviewer you get. Do not despair though, Tomcat7 may be rude to me, but I think my notes on Mortal Kombat are fair and its really only a few mirrorings and a couple of broken refs to fix. I'm not the most experienced GAN reviewer, but I certainly do check things through. Mortal Kombat was a game I played, didn't really like much, but I still enjoy the history of such games and you presented it quite well. ChrisGualtieri ( talk) 15:57, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed you split content from Mortal Kombat II into another article, Home versions of Mortal Kombat II. I support this change and it definitely improves the article, but in the future please remember to write in an edit summary that the content was copied from the original article. This is necessary because the license Wikipedia uses require a trail of authors. Something as simple as "Split from Mortal Kombat II at 21:25 Dec. 12, 2012; see that page for a list of authors" would suffice. I have added a null edit to the history of the page for this one, but if you need to copy text to another page in the future such as spinning off another section, please remember to add a short edit summary indicating where the text came from.

Niemti,
Our difference of opinion as to whether this article should be split not withstanding, you have deleted a large amount of the above article with the edit summary "(Undid revision 531476673 by Op47 (talk))". I did not add the material that you have deleted, so the edit summary is incorrect. I am sure this is not what you intended, would you have another look please. Also, in future would you discuss articles on their talk page not mine. That way, anyone can see what is going on and can have a chance to join the discussion. Op47 ( talk) 21:17, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
I see, you were making the split. You were warned above about this earlier on your talk page, when you make splits or copy content then you must attribute the copy correctly. Now can you please review Template:Copied and add the templates to this article and the article you have created as appropriate. Op47 ( talk) 12:47, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
We did it! :D I have to say, it was a lot of fun when we first worked on building up the Kony 2012 article way back when. Though you should have let me know about the GA nom beforehand, I could have jumped in to help sooner. ;3 But, it worked out. I hope you don't mind if I take partial credit for the GA and list it on my userpage. Oh...were you planning on going all the way to FAC with it? We might need to do a lot of prep work beforehand, if so. Silver seren C 11:06, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

The entire scope is a mess and I had to pull this out of being a manga only page. Lucia wanted Ghost in the Shell to be Ghost in the Shell (manga) and actually made the manga a redirect back in Oct until I noticed it when she put up the franchise for GA.

I wanted to let you know in a less heated context than your proposal in talk that without having looked deeply at the issue I do agree that the counter-reaction to the non-gaming press's sympathy with Sarkeesian should probably have a place in the article. Destructoid is not bad as a source in my view, and I'm sure there are others that could be used as well to show that the there are some in the gaming realm that find all of the sympathy with her to be over the top.
But I also think it's important that you consider the reality of the situation at that article. There is clearly a consensus of other editors who disagree that this material is relevant to the issue and in order to change their minds you will have to advocate for your idea in a persuasive manner. You can't ram your views down the throats of other editors even if you feel very strongly about the issues. Specifically, insults and mockery are not helpful to your cause in the least. If you can't make the case for your position without being petty about it then you'd do better letting a like-minded editor handle the counter-arguments.
Part of being persuasive in this matter also includes taking steps appropriate to your goals. If you want to include material on Destructoid's reaction to the mainstream reaction to AS's detractors's reactions to her posts then your central concern is in expanding the article. A request to rename it is tangential to the issue and serves as a distraction. It is clear to neutral third parties who review the situation that the request is being made as a work-around to side-step consensus regarding the content of the present article. If you are interested in expanding the article's reception section then this is a rhetorically poor way to go about it because it comes off more as misdirection than direct engagement with the meat of the issue.
Anyway I just wanted you to know that I have no opinion on the issue that seems to me to be your true concern (i.e. adding the gaming press's reaction both positive and negative to her) although I lean in favor of including it. But at the same time I recognize that there is a consensus against it and I think that your proposal to move the article is the wrong way to deal with this consensus with an opposed view. If you get to the point at some future date where you are interested in engaging with the actual issue of whether the reaction section should be added to then you'll find me much more sympathetic to your views. I'd give it some time before I revisit the issue though as you seem to have created a lot of bad blood at the talk page. - Thibbs ( talk) 13:11, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for providing a screencap of the email. That would indeed be a valid source. However, the reason I doubted you was because you claimed she had confirmed it in an email and did not provide any proof.

Hi Niemti, I am having a problem with user TheRedPenOfDoom on the Joseph Kony page. She (I think it's a 'She') keep reverting and removing any reference to the video being controversial, despite media consensus that the video is controversial, by constantly demanding 'sources' for the claim, then after I provided a reliable source, claims that 'controversial must be attributed' while I see no such requirement on Wiki policies. Her edit-warring and lack of sources for her own edits lead me to believe she's 'owning' the article and not editing in good faith. As you had a run-in in the past with her regarding the same, care to weight in? Any advice on what to do? Zzsignup ( talk) 10:23, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Niemti. There are a few threads running about your nominations at the Good article process.

Thanks for the heads up - I'm afraid I am a bit swamped with other things this month. If the reviewer is willing to extend the deadline into March, I will have a chance to do a full rewrite, but if he starts you asking for any major overhauls, I'll do my best to help you out and rework whatever's necessary. Will keep an eye on it. Great job applying the requested changes already. -- LoK Wiki ( talk) 23:51, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Niemti. Jiukiukwe should be deleted, but {{ delete}} should only be used for articles that meet a criterion for speedy deletion.

There's just that much patience for someone who obsessively keeps arguing against the very basics of what Wikipedia is and stands for, and wasting everyone's time, all while not ever contributing anything of any actual value to the article. And now some the original researchers are even canvassing people who had never even edit Wikipedia before at all, somewhere (maybe they made an angry thread on a forum, or maybe it's their "GAME BLOG" of some kind, I don't really care, they just won't pass). -- Niemti ( talk) 16:58, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Look, man, fundraising and 10 years of false starts AREN'T part of the devlopment cycle, but they are relevant historical context for this article. There are many other articles out there that use similar structures to make this distinction, and organize a large chunk of info in a way that is readable and useful. There are no laws governing what sub-sections can appear in game article, and even the standards regarding the main sections are merely suggestions for standardization. Whatever you feel about stupid IMDB (which is 100% accurate in this case and is used throughout Wikipedia as a source) stop deleting the part about actually making the game, and stop trying to create a wall of text without meaningful organization. Those are both destructive. Frogacuda ( talk) 21:58, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
I have reverted your edits on this page because quite frankly you are not fit for purpose. Firstly you don't understand page alignments, secondly there are far too many images of the same things (there is already a link to these repetitive images (or image farm) on Wikicommons), thirdly the removal of referenced text is a disgraceful act (what is it WP:IDL?), fourthly I suggest you take a look at WP:CITE before adding your own version of unformatted references. It is Notes, Citations and References (sources on which the page is substantiated). Not just version of ad hoc: year here, puiblisher there etc
All you have done is messed up a perfectly good article for no valid reason. I am not going to try and revisit all your cosmetic changes because I don't have time. Fight me if you want, but I can already see you have a record for being someone who is self-opinionated and out of their depth!! 86.184.58.240 ( talk) 14:54, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

This article wasn't even correct - the mass graves are of the KIA fighters, the "references" fail verification (especially BBC onem supposedly "sourcing" the figures, but actually not at all - actually it's only a news about a museum being opened), it's awkwardly written (including claims that the instruments of the massacre were "Automatic weapons Armoured fighting vehicles Flamethrowers" - no, it was only all kinds of infantry small arms including pistols and rifles, hand grenades, and flamethrowers to set the buildings and corpses on fire), it doesn't even mention the largest massacres (like the largest one, on the railway enbankment where 7-10 thousand people were killed), and more. -- Niemti ( talk) 14:04, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war according to the reverts you have made on
Wasteland 2. Users are expected to
collaborate with others, to avoid editing
disruptively, and to
try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Odie5533 ( talk) 01:14, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi
I like the work you have done on the Waco Siege page, but have to ask why you removed this text during this edit [9]:
"...and that they were "willing to kill but (were) not cold-blooded killers." It explains..."
I feel it has changed the balance of quoted material from that source to being negative instead of neutral. Prior to your edit the negatives were balanced by the "not cold blooded killers" part, which is now removed. Chaosdruid ( talk) 15:12, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
If you continue to persist in your behaviour, you are facing a ban. Please do not continue with you non-use of the preview function and store your in-progress edits on your desktop. If you wish to discuss this, please see the discussion here. Jasca Ducato ( talk) 14:51, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi Niemti, I'm about to do a copy edit of Yoshimitsu, and I noticed you tagged it as having an inadequate lede. I've just glanced at the article so far, but the lede looks appropriate to me. Did you have any specific concerns I could try to address? -- BDD ( talk) 23:03, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
First of all it lacks any real description info about the character (biography and design & gameplay), also all kinds of other appearances (even generally speaking). The lead should summarize every aspect of in the article. -- Niemti ( talk) 23:12, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Ok, you want me to re-review an article that you undid my revisions, attacked my advice, tried to make it seem like I was giving either stupid advice or advice outside of the guidelines of GA Review, wasting my time in the process, and now you want me to do it again? I don't get paid to do wikipedia, we normally treat each other with respect and gratitude for others taking time to review our articles, and you are making a constructive process feel worse than a trip to the dentist. Now I am willing to review it again because you are a very active, seemingly enthusiastic, and on occasion very productive wikipedian, but you've got to get with the program. When someone reviews your articles, the normal answer in most situations are either "yes I'll fix that" or "could you clarify what you mean?" if it seems like the advice is unclear or not great.
